Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biochemistry, DNA polymerase, Molecular biology, DNA polymerase delta and DNA clamp. In his study, Chemical synthesis and Structure–activity relationship is inextricably linked to Stereochemistry, which falls within the broad field of Biochemistry. His studies deal with areas such as Polymerase and DNA repair as well as DNA polymerase.

His studies in Molecular biology integrate themes in fields like Base excision repair and DNA polymerase II. His study in DNA polymerase delta is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both DNA replication and Proliferating cell nuclear antigen. His DNA clamp course of study focuses on Okazaki fragments and Replisome.

His most cited work include:

  • Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA): a dancer with many partners. (867 citations)
  • Eukaryotic DNA polymerases. (613 citations)
  • Specific Structural Determinants Are Responsible for the Antioxidant Activity and the Cell Cycle Effects of Resveratrol (375 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Reverse transcriptase, Molecular biology, DNA polymerase and Virology. His Reverse transcriptase research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Wild type, Mutant, Nucleotidyltransferase and Nucleoside. His work carried out in the field of Molecular biology brings together such families of science as Base excision repair, DNA clamp, DNA polymerase delta, Thymidine kinase and DNA polymerase II.

His DNA polymerase delta research is multidisciplinary, relying on both DNA polymerase lambda and Proliferating cell nuclear antigen. His DNA polymerase study incorporates themes from Polymerase, DNA repair and DNA replication. His Enzyme research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Stereochemistry and Pyrimidine.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (34.15%)
  • Reverse transcriptase (26.06%)
  • Molecular biology (22.54%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Virology (20.07%)
  • Biochemistry (34.15%)
  • Mutant (14.44%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Giovanni Maga focuses on Virology, Biochemistry, Mutant, Stereochemistry and Virus. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including RNA, DDX3X and Helicase. His study involves Kinase, Enzyme, DCTP pyrophosphatase 1, DNA repair and DNA polymerase, a branch of Biochemistry.

The concepts of his DNA repair study are interwoven with issues in DNA polymerase delta, Guanine and Cytidine monophosphate. His work on DNA polymerase mu as part of general DNA polymerase research is often related to Trinucleotide repeat expansion, thus linking different fields of science. His research in Mutant intersects with topics in Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor, Reverse transcriptase and Structure–activity relationship.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A Structural View of SARS-CoV-2 RNA Replication Machinery: RNA Synthesis, Proofreading and Final Capping. (124 citations)
  • Human DDX3 protein is a valuable target to develop broad spectrum antiviral agents. (57 citations)
  • The Arabidopsis STRESS RESPONSE SUPPRESSOR DEAD‐box RNA helicases are nucleolar‐ and chromocenter‐localized proteins that undergo stress‐mediated relocalization and are involved in epigenetic gene silencing (44 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Giovanni Maga mostly deals with Stereochemistry, Biochemistry, Virology, RNA and Reverse transcriptase. Giovanni Maga has included themes like AP site, ABL, Kinase, Proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Src and Enzyme in his Stereochemistry study. The Virology study combines topics in areas such as Virtual screening and Helicase.

His work carried out in the field of RNA brings together such families of science as Homology modeling, Computational biology and RNA-Directed DNA Methylation. His research in Reverse transcriptase intersects with topics in Enantiomer and Mutant. DNA repair and DNA polymerase are subfields of DNA in which his conducts study.
